The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) will stage a protest in Accra today (Tuesday, 23 September) against what it called the selective application of justice by President John Mahama’s government.
The party accused authorities of abusing state power to target its former officials and supporters through politically motivated prosecutions.
NPP National Youth Organiser Salam Mustapha said the protest was cleared with the police under the Public Order Act.
The demonstration followed the arrests of several NPP figures, including Ashanti Regional Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako, known as Chairman Wontumi, who was detained by the Economic and Organised Crime Office, and another regional chairman, Kwame Baffoe, also known as Abronye DC, who was picked up by police.
The NPP said other members and sympathisers had also been arrested under politically influenced investigations.
The party said the protest aimed to demand fairness and highlight what it described as the government’s “misapplication of justice.”
